Programs

  • Program 1 [2020]

    Shelter: COVID-19 made our former model using community organizations to house families and volunteers to provide meals no longer safe for our volunteers or our guests. Family Promise of Beaverton (FPB) adapted to provide shelter for one or two households at a time in the newly-purchase house in central Beaverton, with additional families utilizing hotel rooms for shelter. By the end of 2020, FPB had as many as 14 households in the shelter program at any one time. In addition to shelter, households received food and other forms of assistance such as laundry supplies, gas cards, Tri-Met passes, diapers/wipes, and PPE. Family Promise believes in providing case management in addition to shelter. A case manager helps households create a workable plan to overcome barriers to finding safe, stable, sustainable housing. When a household is ready to find housing, the case manager helps them connect to community resources for housing assistance.

  • Program 2 [2020]

    Prevention: In previous years, Family Promise of Beaverton (FPB) was able to provide some rent/utility assistance to help families prevent eviction thanks to some small restricted grants. In 2020, the Health Equity Grant from the Oregon Health Authority allowed us to directly help families with nearly $200,000 for rent, utility and childcare assistance.

  • Program 3 [2020]

    Stabilization: As an extension of our shelter program we continue case management services with families who have moved into stable housing. Many of our families do not have a family or community support system. We can help these families become self-sufficient and help them integrate in their new community. Some of our successful graduate families were hit hard by COVID-related job loss, hour reduction, loss of childcare and delayed unemployment benefits. We provided them with rent assistance, food boxes, and other forms of assistance such as gas cards, Tri-Met passes, diapers/wipes, and PPE. Our case manager helped keep our graduates on track with their household budgets making sure rent eats first. The families put in the hard work to pull themselves out of homelessness. We provided assistance to alleviate some of the hardship caused by COVID-19.
